Description

A delightful blend of Asian and European influenced tales, creating a unique view on the world.

The folk tales of the Philippines are a unique blend of Asian and Pacific origin, Spanish influences from the long period of colonial occupation, and the islands' position as a seafaring trading post between Japan, Indonesia, Korea and China. This wonderful collection highlights Bagobo Myths associated with Natural Phenomena such as 'Origin of the Stars', 'The Fate of the Moon's Baby', Tagalog Folk-Tales such as 'The Story of Juan and the Monkey', 'Juan the Drunkard who Visited Heaven' and Visayan Folk-Tales ('The Monkey and the Turtle', ‘How the Farmer Deceived the Demon').
